Chapter 3 I'll Always Help You
Tsukasa's POV
I had just arrived in Sekai to meet up with Rui.
"Tsukasa-Kun", Miku exclaimed as she rushed up to me with Kaito.
"Welcome back, Tsukasa", he greeted.
"Greetings , Miku and Kaito", I greeted.
"Greetings, Tsukasa-Kun", another familiar voice said.
I then looked up, and saw Rui.
"Rui", I started before I rushed up to him. "I apologize for asking you to meet me here on such short notice! After all, you're probably very busy with your new job as the CENTER THEATRE's director."
"Tsukasa-Kun", Rui started. "It doesn't matter how busy I get. I will always make time to help you when I can."
"You will", I asked in shock.
"But of course", Rui replied. "After all, if you hadn't asked me to join Wonderlands x Showtime, I probably would have never even gotten the job as the CENTER THEATRE's director. Therefore, in return for what you have done for me, I will always help you, Tsukasa."
After Rui said this, I smiled at him.
"Thank you, Rui", I said.
"You're very welcome", Rui said. "Now then, what is that you need my help with?"
"My first assignment for my acting class is to prepare a monologue to act out", I revealed. "I have decided to act out a monologue from my role as Thorpe. However, I do not know how to do it in English."
"I see", Rui said, before he began thinking. "Alright! Here's what I'll do. I will translate a monologue from A Pianist Named Thorpe into English. Then, we can meet in Sekai again and I will help teach you how to act it out."
That Afternoon
Rui's POV
After they were done with school, I met up with Emu and Nene at a café in Phoenix Wonderland to tell them about my meeting with Tsukasa.
"Waaaaah", the former exclaimed. "Rui-Kun got to see Tsukasa-Kun?!"
"Yep", I replied. "He wanted my help with an assignment for school."
"I want to see Tsukasa-Kun too", Emu exclaimed. "Rui-Kun, where are you gonna go and see him again?"
"In order to help him with his assignment, I will be meeting with Tsukasa-Kun for the rest of the week in Sekai", I revealed. "Next time I go, you can come with me, Emu-Kun."
"Yay", Emu exclaimed. "I can't wait to see Tsukasa-Kun again!"
"Now", I started, changing the subject. "There's something else I wanted to discuss with you two."
"What is it", Nene asked.
"Now that I am the director of the CENTER THEATRE", I started. "Wonderlands x Showtime will need to find a new director."
After I said this, both Emu and Nene looked down sadly.
"Oh", the former said sadly.
"Do you have anybody in mind", Nene asked.
"So far, no", I replied. "Therefore, we will have to look for someone."
The Next Day
After classes, my film club was having a meeting.
"Everybody", the head of the club started. "Please give a warm welcome to our new member, Anno Emiko."
